I have not personally, but a quick search says they mainly eat seedlings when there's a population boom and they run out of the dead plant matter they prefer. Diatomaceous earth sprinkled around the seedlings may keep them at bay.
Leaving a couple inches around the seedlings un-mulched might help as well.
Encouraging habitat for lizards or frogs may help keep the population down.
